Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai: Sanjay is the one behind ruining Abhira's career as a lawyer

In tonight's Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai episode, Armaan (Rohit Purohit) and Abhira (Samridhii Shukla) wander outside when a balloon seller approaches Armaan, who decides to buy them. Meanwhile, Vidya and Manisha try to persuade Kaveri to attend Manish and Swarna's anniversary celebration. Manisha mentions that Manish has issues with Armaan being a divorcee. Vidya clarifies that Abhira and Armaan's marriage was fake, and Manisha criticises Armaan. Despite their concerns, Kaveri agrees to attend the anniversary.

Abhira and Armaan accidentally run into each other and initially think they are imagining things. Kaveri plans to surprise Manish by announcing Armaan and Ruhi's (Garvita Sadhwani) roka ceremony at the anniversary party, shocking Vidya and Manisha, who try to change her mind. However, Kaveri is determined and chooses to keep the engagement plan a secret from Ruhi and Armaan. Manisha becomes anxious. When Abhira and Armaan bump into each other again, Abhira quickly leaves in an auto, leaving Armaan stunned. Manish gifts Swarna a diamond necklace, and she asks him to accept Ruhi and Armaan's relationship. Manish insists that Swarna focus on the gift, as it is their special day, leaving her upset. Meanwhile, Abhira, spotting her broker engaged with her dress in her room, issues a threat and prepares excitedly for an interview.

Abhira confronts Sanjay:

Armaan observes Abhira during her interview and suspects she lied to Manisha. Despite his recommendation, the firm rejects Abhira's proposal, leaving her puzzled about her job rejections. Initially suspecting Armaan, she then discovers Sanjay has been sabotaging her chances. Confronting him, she vows to surpass him one day. Ria informs Abhira about an internship opportunity that excites her. Vidya urges Kaveri to reconsider her decision, but Kaveri remains resolute about attending the anniversary. Ruhi and Armaan get ready for the event, bringing joy to Vidya and Kaveri as they see the two together. Ruhi wonders if Kaveri will skip the anniversary. 

Abhira, visiting the same hotel for a client meeting, learns about the anniversary celebration. Sensing Abhira's presence, Armaan is uneasy. Manish accidentally encounters Abhira and invites her to join the celebration. Abhira hesitates but makes an excuse upon seeing the Poddars. Manish offers Abhira some cake, while Sanjay grows suspicious of her. Kajal thanks Ruhi for assisting Charu. Determined to move forward, Abhira decides to attend the celebration.
